Has anyone got one of these, or had a go?
eReading Devices
£89 for the Wifi model (same as Kindle)
£109 for a Wifi touchscreen model.
It looks like a good alternative to a Kindle, there's a touchscreen model and the software looks ok, syncing across iOS and PC/Mac readers. I'm looking at getting a touchscreen reader for myself at Christmas, this looks pretty good compared to Kindle (limited to amazon store) and Sony Readers (more expensive).

It'll be much easier if you just comply.

The only thing I know about that brand is that it was carried as the eReader of choice by a failed book chain, Borders.

I've got one now, delivered this weekend. Its a black one, and the plastic texture is the mother of all fingerprint magnets, so I'm looking for a case. It's the same size as a Kindle 4, so a case for that should fit.

I saw them at Best Buy, and was curious, but the display model was broken and the sales guy couldn't fix it. I did think the texture on the back felt nicely tactile. How does it work for you?

The pattern in the back is nice to get a grip of, it's the soft touch texture of it that just picks up fingerprint marks already, on the back and around the front button.

Haven't heard anything bad about it...I think my order of preference for an e-Reader would be Nook Simple Touch, Kobo, and Kindle Touch.
